Background notes
Archive material and source history
LoKumba formed in Chicago in 1994, led by singer-songwriter Frank Palomares. Their debut album came out in 1996, anchored by the single 'Lloraras,' which became their breakout track.
Palomares had worked as a session musician before starting the band. They blended Afro-Cuban rhythms with R&B and traditional Mexican instrumentation, though the lineup details beyond Palomares are thin in the record.
After their initial success, the group took a break in the early 2000s. They released several more albums, including 'Subeme la Radio' in 1998 and 'Desde el Alma' in 2001.
